We Are Not So Different, You And I...

Using an LLM to look up documentation is like using a sword and fork to eat chicken. Sure, it technically works, but you're bringing medieval weaponry to a task that requires... literally just opening a browser tab. The guy's committed to the bit though, full knight armor and everything. Documentation exists. It's indexed. It's searchable. It doesn't hallucinate that a function takes 4 parameters when it only takes 2. But hey, why read the actual docs when you can ask an AI that was trained on Stack Overflow answers from 2019 and might confidently tell you to use a deprecated method? The title nails it too. Same energy as people who write "loop through the array and find the maximum value" as their solution to a coding challenge. Thanks, I also speak English. Show me the code or show me the door.

First day with Python: "GET THIS THING AWAY FROM ME!" *frantically googles how to exit vim* Second day: *reluctantly takes a bite* "Hmm, these indentation rules aren't that bad..." Two weeks later: *pupils dilated, surrounded by 47 open Stack Overflow tabs* "Have you heard about our lord and savior list comprehensions? I've rewritten my entire codebase as one-liners!" The transition from hatred to complete obsession happens faster than you can say "import antigravity".

Oh sweet merciful compiler! That moment when your code produces a bug so otherworldly, so COSMICALLY ABSURD that you can't even form coherent search terms! 😱 You're just sitting there, Mike Wazowski-faced, completely dumbfounded because how do you even Google "program crashes when I sneeze but only on Thursdays if Mercury is in retrograde"?! GPT just responds with "I don't understand what you're asking" because YOUR BUG DEFIES THE LAWS OF COMPUTER SCIENCE ITSELF! And then you fix it by ACCIDENT by deleting a comment. A COMMENT! Which shouldn't even DO anything! The universe is laughing at you!

Ah, the GitHub language breakdown for side projects – where BASIC somehow makes up 11.1% of your codebase despite not touching it since 1997. Let's not forget the 9% Beef (a real language, but probably just your angry comments), 6.5% Rust because you watched that one YouTube tutorial, whatever "मादरचोद" is (probably what you shouted at 3 AM when nothing compiled), C89 from that algorithm you copy-pasted, and Albanian because... why not? The remaining 56.3% is just unclassified Stack Overflow snippets you're hoping nobody notices. Side projects: where programming languages go to either die or reproduce uncontrollably.
